Abstract:
The Highlights Lecture, presented at the closing session of each SNMMI Annual Meeting, was originated and presented for more than 30 y by Henry N. Wagner, Jr., MD. Beginning in 2010, the duties of summarizing selected significant presentations at the meeting were divided annually among 4 distinguished nuclear and molecular medicine subject matter experts. The 2024 Highlights Lectures were delivered on June 11, 2024, at the SNMMI Annual Meeting in Toronto, Canada. Presented here is the lecture by Richard Carson, PhD, Professor of Radiobiology and Biomedical Imaging and of Biomedical Engineering at Yale School of Medicine (New Haven, CT), who spoke on neuroscience topics presented at the meeting. Note that in the following presentation summary, numerals in brackets represent abstract numbers as published in The Journal of Nuclear Medicine (2024;65[suppl 2]).
